I cleaned up a bit and rewrote parts of the instructions based on your feedback, everything should now be at http://drupal.i1media.no. It has been brought to my attention that the module doesn't work with PHP 4.x anymore. I don't have PHP 4.x, but I suspect it only breaks on less than 10 lines. Please submit a patch if you can. The only change in the latest version is the .htaccess file, I had not realized that phpBB 3.x now comes with its own. Thanks to Devis for pointing this out.

Thank you again for your job!

Regarding the length of the text, look for block0_char_count in the configuration file. It won't use that directly, but it'll look for a space after that number of characters and cut there.
Access user profiles permission
In the Access control the user module we have the following fields,
access user profiles
administer access control
administer users
change own username
If we have enabled the first option the user or guest access to phpbb3 profile from the user name or their account in drupal.
Right?
That is what i want.
Sorry, I misunderstood. I
Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you were talking about 'edit drupal users' in the phpbb section. I wasn't aware that the other one isn't enabled by default.
Thank you for clarifying, I'll add it to the docs.
